not that you should have to,if you put it in the middle and tap the top with a hammer,that should hold it,i think they are pinched in at the top to hold them,realy they should exchange it as its a fault

I was expecting something about my girly driving style back, but joking apart I thought when assembling them there could be an issue, trying to threadlock and grease within 1mm could lead to probs...but mine is still on the table so no probs except trying to get my brick of a speedo in!

Its the opposite end of the shaft Chris - the dogbone. Its pre manufactured. Id ring wherever you bought the car from im sure they will hook you up with a replacement after such a short term failure.
